WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Lincoln Center Theater presents Dying City, a new play by Christopher Shinn, to be directed by James Macdonald. The play tells the story of Kelly, a young therapist whose husband dies while on military duty in Iraq. A year later, his identical twin brother arrives unexpectedly at Kelly's door, seeking solace -- and answers to the mystery of his brother's death. The production stars Rebecca Brooksher and Pablo Schreiber.

All these topics and more are discussed in a mere 90 minutes in Christopher Shinn's engrossing new play, Dying City, at Lincoln Center's Mitzi Newhouse Theater,
